This summer, Real Madrid welcomed Kylian Mbappé (25 years old) and Endrick (18 years old). Enough to delight the fans. But not totally. Many of them expected the residents of the Santiago Bernabéu stadium to also recruit a central defender after Nacho left for Saudi Arabia. Especially since the Iberian club is not spared from injuries in this sector of the game. But Florentino Pérez and his teams felt that it was not necessarily necessary. Carlo Ancelotti must therefore make do with the players at his disposal and tinker.
But the Mister is not complaining, he who is aware of having a very large squad in quantity and especially in quality. Despite everything, the management of Real Madrid has some concerns. It is not necessarily concerned by the mixed beginnings of the club in La Liga or by the lack of goals of Kylian Mbappé. It has confidence in the team and believes in KM9, who will adapt without problem according to the leaders. On the other hand, the Spanish board has another problem in mind. AS explains that the club is very afraid of the tensions that could arise between certain players.
Leaders are concerned
The Iberian publication does not talk about the cases of Mbappé, Vinicius or Rodrygo, but about the young players considered luxury replacements at the moment. These are Brahim Díaz, often good when he comes on, Arda Güler, who is tired of waiting, and Endrick, who has already indicated that he will go on loan this winter if he does not play enough. The Merengues fear that these players are not happy with their situation and their playing time. AS also mentions the names of Eduardo Camavinga and Aurélien Tchouaméni, who will have to fight to make a place for themselves in midfield.
The leaders are very concerned about the well-being of the group and they are counting on Ancelotti to find solutions without frustrating the players. Which is anything but easy. Since the start of the season, Rodrygo, who has no complaints about his playing time, has made some remarks about his case. Which has not escaped Florentino Pérez and his club. They are precisely shocked to see a regular starter express his feelings and they are afraid of seeing the less used players do the same and crack the locker room. Carlo Ancelotti will have to work miracles and succeed in making all these people live together this year.
